A more settled weather week, typical of Fall, but water conditions will be mainly cautious all week. Monday with have chances of showers during the day and Thursday will have a chance of rain all day. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday look dry. Highs will be in the 40’s to 60’s with overnight lows in the 30’s to 50’s. Frost is possible on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. The week will start off breezy, too. Water conditions will be borderline to mostly cautious all week with Small Craft Advisories. Winds will gust to 30+ knots with seas to 6+ feet. Surf and beach conditions will be cautious to Monday, Thursday, and Friday and good for Tuesday and Wednesday and parts of Thursday. Water temperatures in rivers and bays have dropped a few degrees, but ocean waters are steady in the 60’s still. UV Index will be Low to Moderate at 0-4/15.
A cold front will slide through our region early Monday morning. High pressure centered over central Canada will build to our north during mid week. A warm front, followed quickly by another cold frontal passage is expected through our region late Thursday or early Friday. High pressure follows to our south across the Carolinas next Saturday with another cold frontal passage likely Saturday night or Sunday.
The weekend looks dry with highs in the 50’s and 60’s and lows in the 40’s and 50’s. Water, surf and beach conditions look to be borderline to cautious.
The Tropics are quiet again.
